Orphaned non-free image (Image:Adult antlion.JPG)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Adult antlion.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aksibot 09:41, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi! I'm serving as the wikipedian-in-residence at the Smithsonian Institution Archives until June! One of my goals as resident, is to work with Wikipedians and staff to improve content on Wikipedia about people who have collections held in the Archives - most of these are scientists who held roles within the Smithsonian and/or federal government. I thought you might like to participate since you are interested in the sciences! Sign up to participate here and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on our to-do list. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at the request page, and of course, if you share your successes at the outcomes page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation! Sarah (talk) 19:01, 16 April 2012 (UTC) |
Welcome back
[edit]Nice to see you back... Shyamal (talk) 15:36, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- back and raring to go. I see u 'r mainly on the birds section now. What's the situation with the lep pages. Anything in particular to be done?Viren (talk) 12:03, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
- Lots to do. Standards have changed. More info available. Taxonomy now stable. I suggest we start family-wise. What say? AshLin (talk) 14:21, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
- Begun on Pieridae. Nice to see that the situation has changed hugely since I was active. First thing is family page itself. Type images are required. Ashwin do you have a page with references, like lep index and such. I know lep index is in the ref section, but you probably have more. Shyamal whatever happened to that brilliant idea of yours of having a linked image gallery. Not gallery. An identification page. Viren (talk) 17:04, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 9
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Osmeterium, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Graphium. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
